Hadith 36:100
Waki’ narrated to us, from ‘Amr ibn ‘Uthman ibn Mawhab, who said: I heard Abu Burdah say: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) wrote to a man from the People of the Scripture: "Submit (embrace Islam)." He said: The Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) had not yet finished his letter when a letter came to him from that man, in which he was greeting the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) with peace. So the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) replied at the bottom of his letter.
حدثنا وكيع عن عمرو بن عثمان بن موهب قال سمعت أبا بردة يقول كتب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إلى رجل من أهل الكتاب أسلم أنت قال فلم يفرغ النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم من كتابه حتى أتاه كتاب من ذلك الرجل أنه يقرأ على النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فيه السلام فرد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم في أسفل كتابه
